\"\"Campus Crusade for Christ<\/a>\u00a0(CCC), a mainstay of Christian outreach ministries at universities across the United States for the past 60 years, is changing its iconic name because \u201cthe word \u2018crusade\u2019 has negative associations with the bloody Christian conquests of the 11th to 13th centuries,\u201d reported the\u00a0New York Times<\/a>.

He continued that God wasn't important, wasn't real, and our parents just used God to impose restrictions on us because they were inadequate to parent effectively. I knew then I was going to be involved in a war and that I would have to be in Jesus Christ's Army. Even then, I knew the United States of America would cease to exist without the vast majority of its citizens voluntarily submitting to the Perfect and Good Laws of the Holy Bible. I am a woman who loves the Lord Jesus Christ. I am tired of seeing our LORD denigrated from the school house to the White House. I search the Internet for items that ought to serve as a warning to Americans and Christians all through America, but the nation seems to be sleeping. Wake up America! You are losing your freedoms, your children and your country.
